MARY, 35 YEARS

Dear Host Family,

My name is Mary I never been married and have no children. I´m a high school graduate. I have 5 siblings. I have been working as domestic worker in Hong Kong. Now, I am here in the Philippines and looking for a new job hopefully in Europe.

I have been working in a Chinese family with small children. I am taking care of children, we play together, I read books for them, we do coloring books together, counting numbers, and put them to bed.

Every day, I start working at 8:00am. My duties in Hong Kong includes: Help getting the kids ready for nursery/kindergarten, making them a lunchbox, bathe them, combing their hair and dress them. I do the grocery shopping. I keep track of what the family need in the household in terms of grocery items for instance stuff for the lunch box, or food for breakfast and dinner. Apart from this, I do clean the house, maintain the orderliness in the house, do the laundry, fold and organize the family's clothes on its proper places. In the afternoon, taking care of kids and play with them. Cooking dinner and cleaning after dinner. Accomplish other given tasks. When it's necessary, I do change linen on beds, bath towels and hand towels. Clean kitchen utensils, ovens, stoves, and blenders after use. I finish my duties at 10:00pm. Some afternoons I can rest as long as I finish my duties. My day off is every Sunday.

I am flexible, hardworking, effective, dependable and happy person with work experience as domestic worker. I am 100% non-smoker and I can speak English pretty good. I can work without supervision, I can take initiative and knows where and when I am needed. I love children and really like them, I can take the roll off a big sister for them.

I am wishing that you will give me a chance to be your Au pair, and I hope your family will provide me the opportunity to do so.

Thanks for taking a time to consider my application and I look forward to hearing from you and discuss a suitable Au pair role in your family.

Yours Truly,
Mary
